@RawaneOsmane Thank you

[Justin Rustenhoven @JSRustenhoven]

In the past year, there’s been major progress in our understanding of how blood and lymphatic vasculature at the brain borders shape waste clearance and neuroimmune connections. Glad to highlight some of these advances for this series. https://t.co/VXItdZDs9E

Whatever one’s views on the politics of Viktor Orbán, two facts are undeniable:

1. Under his leadership, Hungary became the safest place in Europe for Jews; and

2. He was an unflinching supporter of Israel, unwavering in his solidarity with the Jewish state and fearless in standing up to the hordes at the European Union and the United Nations.

This we will never forget. Thank you! 🇮🇱 🇭🇺

Our new preprint by @peowenlu @SaefIzzy @weinerlabhms and colleagues shows that nasal anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody treatment can reduce neuroinflammation in a mouse model of Long COVID, even when administered at 4 weeks after infection 🧠

Israel has proven something important over the past years: it is one of the few U.S. allies that actually carries its weight.

Israel fights its own battles, and defends its own borders.

And it works in deep operational and intelligence cooperation with the United States.

While many allies benefit from American protection through NATO and other security frameworks, Israel consistently contributes tangible value: intelligence sharing, counter-terrorism expertise, battlefield innovation, and a willingness to confront threats that affect the entire Western world with ITS OWN SOLDIERS.

At a time when moral clarity often seems to be fading in parts of the West, it’s worth remembering what a true alliance looks like.

When terror is met with hesitation instead of resolve, the message is heard loud and clear. Leadership demands courage, not slogans. History will remember who drew a line, and who edited statements.

You do not represent me or the values of my country.
Defending against a regime that sponsors terror and threatens annihilation is not aggression, it is survival.
If you cannot stand with America and its allies against terror, LEAVE!

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.  Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.

I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution.

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

BREAKING: The United Arab Emirates is restricting their nationals from enrolling at British universities over fears that UK campuses are being radicalized by radical Islamist groups.

THIS IS BEYOND HILARIOUS! The UAE has a lower tolerance for radical Islam than the freaking UK.

Thrilled to share our invited Nature Reviews Neuroscience review on the role of peripheral immunity in Alzheimer’s disease.
Honored to write this piece with outstanding colleagues @KuchrooLab, @RudyTanzi, @weinerlabhms, Mehdi Jorfi and rising stars from my lab Neta Rosenzweig and Kilian Kleemann.
My sincere thanks to Editor Katherine Whalley for the invitation.
The time has come to deeply investigate peripheral immunity in AD.

There is HOPE

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

The Israeli national anthem, “Hatikvah,” is sung by Jewish Israeli, Nicole Raviv, and Emirati Muslim, Ahmad Alhusani — in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

A new Middle East is on the horizon.

@CherylWroteIt Chery, wishing you strength, comfort, and a smooth recovery. Take all the time you need to rest and heal, we’re all thinking of you!

Thank you, President Trump for bringing our hostages home and ending the war!

[Jonathan Conricus @jconricus]

This almost looks like an apology. But what you said didn’t surprise me even one bit. You have been consistent in your systemic disdain for Israel. So many masks have fallen since October 7, yours being one of the first ones to fall and reveal your true colors.
